Episode notes
Tie Corruption To Everyday Costs For Voter Persuasion

Apathy Enables Systemic Corruption
- Scaramucci frames recent administration trades as extreme but says public apathy enables corruption to persist.
- He recounts Trump dismissing concerns as 'peas' and warns only public mobilization can force reform and codify protections against insider trading.
Turn Outrage Into Legal Reforms Against Corruption
